Hopefully you’ve heard a little about this film already as it’s been addressed a few times in our topical posts that showcase trailers for this kind of thing but if its news to you for some reason, its a Netflix Original film called “Bright” and it stars Will Smith. It’s available for streaming on the service as you read this and below you will find its official poster along with some premise and the casting. As usual I’ve closed out the topic with some editorial. Take a look.

The Premise: In an alternate present where humans and fantasy creatures—Orcs, Fairies, Elves, Centaurs, etc.—have co-existed since the beginning of time, human LAPD officer Daryl Ward (Will Smith) and Orc Deputy Nick Jakoby (Joel Edgerton) embark on a routine patrol night, only to discover an ancient—but powerful—artifact: a magic wand, that was thought to be destroyed, and encounter a darkness that will ultimately alter the future and their world as they know it. (thanks Wiki).

PiercingMetal Thoughts: I was a fan of the show “Grimm” when it started but lost track so early that I didn’t end up keeping up to speed and as a diehard for quality and quirky action and Science Fiction/Fantasy films think this might be a sleeper hit. I think that I actually said how it reminded me of “Bad Boys” meets “Hellboy” in one of my trailer post narratives. That said I will definitely be perusing the Netflix Service when I sit down to relax after the upcoming holidays. There is no rush for me since I have so many other things to attend to before the year turns over. Have you seen any of the trailers for this? I posted all three of them so do please take a look and if it strikes your fancy let us know down there below.

I’m sharing what appears to be the third and final trailer for the upcoming Netflix Original film “Bright” which stars Will Smith and many others as a police officer living in a realm where Sword and Sorcery characters walk among us. The film becomes available for streaming in ten days on 12/22, take a look.

PiercingMetal Thoughts: Sorry readers I don’t have much to add as its been super busy over here preparing for the holidays and keeping the posts flowing. I was already intrigued by the films first two trailers and am starting to fear that with a third that they now show too much and perhaps are concerned about the potential reception. Slow down gang, let the geeks weigh in and I am sure it will be fine. Chime in down below if you like. I don’t mind that at all. Until next time.

Back in July I shared what was the first trailer of a Netflix Original film called “Bright”. It’s the creative brainstorming of David Ayer and Max Landis and will be available for streaming in December on the Netflix service. Here is the second trailer for the film.

PiercingMetal Thoughts: I’ve already noted that I feel I’d give this a chance since it looks like fun. I don’t have much else to add to that but you can if you like. I don’t ever mind the readers tossing in their comments about stuff. You know where to do it so don’t forget to sign up for your free month of Netflix towards the middle of December and also make note to watch all of the Marvel Studios shows if you are behind. It’s time to chill heheheh.

Now this sounds like something our readers would find of interest. There is a film coming to Netflix in December called “Bright” and urban fantasy crime film that is directed by David Ayer and written by Max Landis. The first trailer was recently released and since we love sharing that sort of thing if the film is on topic, here we go.

PiercingMetal Thoughts: I have to say that this didn’t look bad at all and reminded me a little bit of Smith’s “Bad Boys” along with the “Hellboy” film. I’ve been loving the geek stuff that Netflix has been offering up in terms of the Marvel shows and this looks like it might keep fans interested for however long it is. As its not a series I imagine it will be easy enough to sit through. What do you readers think about this one? Will you give it a chance? Let me know down in the comments section below.

Hey there readers so “Suicide Squad” opened just over two weeks ago at the time of this writing and since I am aiming at doing a lot more movie reviews when they are still in theaters here we are. I usually hit these films with our stalwart media companion Skeleton Pete but he couldn’t join me this time around. With this film, I decided to keep it local and went to the Alpine Theater in my own Bay Ridge neighborhood which was a better idea since the price of my ticket and some snacks were about the same as the ticket only at the Manhattan theater. Let’s go to the movies.

For those who are in the unaware, “Suicide Squad” is the third film in the currently being built DC Extended Universe. This began with “Man Of Steel” and continued into “Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice” which was released earlier this year and since that last one was received with a very mixed and negative opinion, one could only cross their fingers about this one and to briefly recap its premise, here is what the Wiki had to say about the film’s bottom line.Continue reading PiercingMetal Sees “Suicide Squad” @ Alpine Cinemas→
